Volcanic Crater is the fifth area in Sonic Boom: Shattered Crystal. It is an active volcano island containing a hangar of millennia-old vehicles from the Ancients. After following Metal Sonic here, Team Sonic sought to escape the volcano as it began to erupt.
Overview
Volcanic Crater's World Map.
Volcanic Crater is a dark grey high island that consists solely of an active volcano. The volcano's throat is filled with yellow lava that pours down the volcano in rivers. No organic life exist here due to the hostile environment. Underground, the island is a labyrinth of volcanic caverns with magma rivers and a hidden hangar with Ancient vehicles.
Story
Having followed Metal Sonic to Volcanic Crater, Team Sonic eventually got lost in the underground volcanic caverns as the volcano was about to erupt. Fortunately, Tails had just finished decrypting one of Amy's files which revealed that there was a hidden vehicle hangar from the Ancients in the volcano. Grabbing a plane there, Team Sonic used it to escape the volcano and reach Lyric the Last Ancient's flying stronghold where Amy was being held prisoner, despite Tails having trouble with the plane's controls.
